Egg Fried Rice Recipe | How to make Egg Fried Rice | Step By Step Recipe | Weekend Cooking

This is an easy egg fried rice recipe, Indian Style. Making Egg Fried Rice is not so complicated nor tedious process.When Chicken Fried Rice seem too tough you can ruffle this in no time. As always I normally make the vegetarian Fried rice first and then add the Scrambled Egg or Fried Chicken to the rice.  

I made this Egg Fried Rice couple of weeks ago for Sunday Lunch along with Vegetable Manchurian. Since this was the main course, I had to remove the portion for vegetarian before adding the scrambled eggs to it.

It's been raining non stop during the weekend. We had gone to Tirumala for Darshan and it was so chill in the hills. We had a wonderful darshan, it was a great weekend all together. Schools have been closed for the past 3 days before the weekend because of rain and we are at our wit's end to know how to keep the kids occupied at home.
